Highlights
“We are absolutely over the moon with the exceptional work done by Peter and the team/Alpha BC on our Commercial shop extension. From start to finish, the service was outstanding. The team was professional, punctual, and incredibly tidy. The quality of craftsmanship is superb, with a fantastic attention to detail. Communication was clear and friendly throughout the entire process. It was a genuine pleasure to work with such a trustworthy and skilled builder. We couldn't be happier and highly recommend their services without any reservation!”

This trade isn't licensed in the UK, so anyone can set up. TrustMark is the only Government-endorsed quality scheme for work in and around the home - check whether they're registered, or find a TrustMark-registered business.
Check the TrustMark registerNever pay a large deposit up front. Agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow. Both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
